Manchester City cruised into the Champions League quarter finals for the first time in their history - but they are sweating over the fitness of captain Vincent Kompany after the centre back limped off with a suspected calf injury.

A goalless draw with Dynamo Kiev was enough to secure their place in the last eight, where they could face one Europe's giants in Barcelona, Bayern Munich or Real Madrid.

But the evening was soured by the injury to Kompany, who hobbled out of the action after just six minutes.

It makes the Belgian international a major doubt for Sunday's derby with Manchester United and casts a shadow over City's hopes of overhauling Leicester at the top of the Premier League.

To make matters worse for Manuel Pellegrini - he lost Nicolas Otamendi shortly after, following a challenge from Vitaliy Buyalskiy.

Even without their first choice central defensive partnership City comfortably saw off the threat of Kiev - who barely forced Joe Hart into action.

Kiev went into the game knowing they needed to score at least three goals to overturn City's 3-1 first leg lead.

That never looked likely and it was Pellegrini's side who came closest to breaking the deadlock when Jesus Navas' low drive came back off the foot of the post.

Manchester City 0-0 Dynamo Kiev

A game of very few chances provided little to get either the home or visiting fans out of their seats - but will be of little concern to Pellegrini or the City faithful.

Their Champions League hopes are very much alive. And with Arsenal facing the daunting task of having to overturn Barca's 2-0 first leg lead in the Nou Camp on Wednesday, City are likely to be English football's last hope of triumphing this season.
